Techniques Used

Chisel engraving

Chisel engraving (hori) consists of using engraving chisels to embellish the surface of metalwork. Techniques include standard hairline engraving (kebori) performed with a V-shaped chisel, wedge-shaped dot engraving (keribori) performed with a triangular chisel, and metal cutting (hatsuribori) performed with especially sharp flat chisels.

Embossing

Embossing, or metal chasing (uchidashi), is the process of using punches to raise designs on metal by repeatedly hammering the face or back of a piece (the latter technique being known as “repoussage”). Embossed work can take the shape of highly pronounced three-dimensional forms or shallow reliefs like those seen on brooches and ornaments for kimono obi.
